I wonder where i can find this Movie Mashup? I’ve googled it without success… any news on what became of the possible theatrical release?
It’s all gone very quiet on the Mashup Movie front. Last I heard they were still looking for backers. I doubt we’ll hear any more until that happens, at which point we’ll probably also get some kind of indication as to whether it’ll get a big screen debut, direct to DVD or onto somewhere like BBC3.
I really wish we had news – it is brilliantly funny and deserves to be seen.
Somewhat off topic but a few weeks ago I had a dream that they had a special screening for Mashup Movie. I was very disappointed to see they’d reedited it and completely removed Sherlock Holmes! Perhaps it was more of a nightmare… I’m sure they’d never do that in reality, though!
Anyway, with luck, in a few months they will make a breakthrough and there will be some good news to spread. We’ll let you know if we hear anything.
